In a continual effort to push the envelope and blow all your puny minds, I came up with a fantastic mid-afternoon cocktail: the bacon and jalapeno martini. Cook one strip of bacon. Cut one jalapeno into wheels. Fill a shaker with ice and as much vodka as you can handle. I added 1/2 strip of bacon and six jalapeno wheels. Call me a sissy but my martini was so fucking hot it gave me the sweats so I would only suggest using three wheels or less. Add a little bacon grease to make it "filthy." Shake and strain into a chilled martini glass. Garnish with a jalapeno wheel and the other 1/2 strip of bacon. Drink it.

That's disgusting. You may as well have added some remoulade too.
And why are you drinking vodka in the morning? Where's the baby?
Damn! I TOTALLY should have rimmed the glass with remoulade!
It is 3:30pm...totally acceptable drinking time
if you are an alcoholic!
Back off Judgey McJudgesalot! Daddy needs a drink.
Hmm is Paul Roberts back?
Fuck that douche bag.
Mmmm hrmmmmm....
I didn't drink it babe! I swear!
Though I appreciate your efforts to continue to combine bacon and booze, that does sound a little, for lack of a better word, gross.
However, being unemployed right now (thanks, economic downturn!) I often start happy hour early, so I do support your decision to imbibe before 5.
PS, Judgey McJudgesalot? Ha! I am totally stealing that.
It was actually pretty darn good. The jalapeno came through really strong so I would definitely go less jalapeno and more bacon. But I can understand how drinking bacon grease could be perceived as "gross."
Thanks for your input Bunny!!!
I cannot and will not drink bacon.
The beauty of bacon is found through chewing.
You Sir are a fucking BACON GOD.
it's always a surprise, the stuff at your table.
I saw your stint as a guest poster over at Daily Beer Review. Why don't you tell him about your hippie days, when you tried to smoke your dreadlocks because you thought they were made out of pot and believed the color turquoise could talk when you were high.
@Asshole boyfriend- ROFL!!
Never a hippie!
You just have to make sure you disgusting bacon and jalepeno martini is shaken, not stirred!
As anyone actually tried this drink? As gross as it sounds I want to try it since I know bacon makes anything taste good!
Hi Nathan,
I don't know about anyone else but I did try it and here is what I have to say (as if you care). Don't skimp on the bacon but go light on the jalapeno and it will be fantastic. I used too much jalapeno (six fresh wheels) and it burned a hole in my stomach.
Ironically, I just reviewed a tavern today on my blog that should TOTALLY serve this. I'm going to email them...
Great review PillowNaut!
uuyyy..nothing more.
Does that mean delicious in Mexican?
This is amazing. I want to try this concoction as I love bacon, jalapenos, and martinis! All I will say is why not?
Damn right Justin!
Dios mio! Finally something to get me ready for the Bloody Mary!
Bacon purists rearing their ironic heads. Do they know it's sliced off the rump of dead pigs?
